Really well written and a very informative book on Mary Tudor. It was like being transported back in time and watching her life unfold before your eyes.
Definitely well worth a read. NetGalley, reviewed by Sue Blanchard

Few historians are better placed than Julian Whitehead, former intelligence officer and security adviser, to tell the fascinating and dark tale of espionage, plots and rebellion in the reign of England's 'Merrie Monarch'. Impeccably researched and engagingly written, this book provides a compelling new perspective on the reign of Charles II. Highly recommended. TJ Borman

Those of us of a certain age will remember Keith Michel's brilliant portrayal of Henry VIII and the men and women who graced his court. Younger viewers will be familiar with Wolf Hall. The people are the same, and in this wonderful book Lynda Telford, they're brought back to life. Much more information than anything a TV show or a film could give you - this is brilliant!
